...this was a far cry from the silly little buzzings of the boy of 1912. These young men, veterans of a world war, and the finest operators and radio engineers the world possesses, relayed this particular message from Chicago and Roswell, N. Mex. When the tests were completed, the roar from all of those who had restrained themselves and remained quiet for the test, was amazing. The writer sat through this test, and he confesses that nothing in all his life thrilled him quite so deeply, as listening to Chicago request Roswell, New Mexico, to be sure that...

That being impossible the best we can do is to add one final YEAY...

...noise is not all. There are two technical points that make all the difference between a dull, heavy roar and spirited singing. Roll every r: "rrrip 'em thrrrough!" And sing as staccato as possible by putting an h before each vowel. Really "Hit the line for Harvard;" make "The cheers frrrom the Harvard hosts rrring high" mean something; and on the last line of the Marseillaise don't sing a feeble "Anon to victory," but a short, snappy prophetic: "hon hon to victory." ABBOTT LOW MOFFAT...
